Dimension decimal places.

Post by ozymax »

I'm working on a large project and I'm wanting to place dimensions on a customer drawing.
I'm designing in mm but would like the dimensions to read in m, to help de clutter the drawing.
So instead of a dimension stating 1500mm, I'd like it to display 1.5m.
Is this possible?
Changing the "decimal places" in the dimension tool won't let me do it.
I'm still working with Aspire 4.5.

The Dimensions tool has an option near the bottom of the window for "Use Custom Text" which, if checked, allows you to type in anything you wish. It may not be available with version 4.5.

Doesn't look like I don't have that option.
